PORTLAND, Ore., April 4, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Oregon-based energy efficiency contractor, GreenSavers, is now a 3-time winner of the ENERGY STAR Contractor of the Year Award. In 2016, 2017, and 2018, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) chose GreenSavers from more than 1,450 contractors across the country. The award recognizes leadership in energy efficiency and commitment to the ENERGY STAR program.
GreenSavers will accept the award in Washington DC on April 20, 2018. As a 3-time award winner, GreenSavers will also receive the 2018 Partner of the Year – Sustained Excellence Award.
